Over the past three decades the Republic of China (ROC) on Taiwan has achieved a degree of economic development that has attracted worldwide attention. Its economy is growing at a pace that will qualify the ROC as a developed country by the turn of the century; in Asia it will be second only to Japan in per capita income. How has the economy been able to expand as rapidly as it has? What governmental policies enable it to sustain an annual growth rate that is at the forefront of the newly industrializing countries? These centrally important questions guide Schive's study of the economic modernization of Taiwan.

The Foreign Factor: The Multinational Corporation's Contribution to the Economic Modernization of the Republic of China
Good book but dry and dense. Brustein analyzes why Germans joined the Nazi party before Hitler's appointment as Chancellor of the country. His surprising but very well supported conclusion: for most Germans, it wasn't anti-semitism but economic need that led them to become Nazis.
Unfortunately, his book assumes a much greater knowledge of Weimar Germany than i possess (i still have no idea what the Young and Dawes plans were, for instance, even after reading his entire book). And being completely quantitative, it tends to be on the dry end of things. I could have used a Weimar Germany 101 course before reading this book. And Brustein could have spiced up his analysis with qualitative data.
All in all, though, a good book. I'm glad i read it and have a deeper, more nuanced view, of pre-WWII Nazis.
